I had an incredible talk with a young man last night. I spent about an hour and fifteen minutes sharing with this young man, who is about 25. He was a believer, but just a baby Christian. Several times in our conversation I told him I would let him go so he could go home or wherever he was going. But he did not want me to go. He just kept asking me questions about church, how to witness, angels, heaven and all kinds of stuff. He kept asking me to teach him something. So, we stood in the Valero parking lot until almost midnight talking about Jesus and the urgency to live for Him. He is in a band and lives with four other guys. He said only one is saved, but the rest are open. I told him I would be happy to do some Bible studies with them, and he thought that would be great. He said he was encouraged and inspired by our talk. He said he was going to call all his friends as soon as our conversation ended so he could share with them everything we had talked about. I was also encouraged that this may be one of my first real chances to get into a home and really teach some people the Word of God as a result of street witnessing. He told me he was going to talk to his friends about setting up a time I could come over. His name is Ricky, and he seems like he really wants to learn and grow. Please pray that Ricky calls me and that God would bind Satan so there will not be any obstacles to prevent me from starting this Bible study with these young men. He also said he would call me about going to church with me. Currently he is not going to church. That was one of his questions he asked me about earlier in the conversation, if it was O.K. that he didn't go to church. We had a great talk, and I hope and pray that the Lord will give me a greater opportunity to meet with all of them and spend time each week with them. God is so good. I had a very busy day, and this was the only time I could have gone out to witness. And this is who the Lord led me to. Praise God that He is in control every minute of every day. I will update you on this as soon as I find out more.
